Test: Vibration Multimedia Speaker

Konklusion

Det har været et interessant bekendskab at teste denne lille gadget fra Computer Mester. Igen formåede de at imponere os med langt mere lyd end vi forventede, da vi åbnede pakken. Der var en hel del at hente, ved at sætte enheden til sin laptop eller mobiltelefon og hvis ikke man gider slæbe rundt på sine gadgets, indsætter man blot en mini-SD kort, og så virker enheden som en transportabel MP3 afspiller. Underlaget er dog utroligt vigtigt og hvis man ikke lige står i nærheden af en fast overflade, skal man nok ikke forvente det helt store mirakel fra den.

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
Det er ikke første gang verden har set omni-directional sound enheder, men denne fortjener stadig et 4-tal, da det for mig i hvert fald, er nyt at se en enhed agere magnet fra en højttaler og bruge underlaget som membran. Det er smart!

Design - 3
Designet er som sådan ikke vildt specielt. Det er alligevel smart, at der er blevet plads til de forskellige funktioner den har, når man tager størrelsen i betragtning.

Ydelse - 4
Det er langt mere ydelse i denne lille enhed end man lige forventer og under de rigtige omstændigheder vil jeg alle dage vælge denne, frem for de standard enheder man normal finder i sine mobile enheder. Jeg giver den 4, da diskanten desværre godt kan skrige en smule, hvis man skruer for højt op. Underlaget betyder utroligt meget, så enheden i sig selv, bestemmer ikke resultatet.

Pris - 3
Prismæssigt lander vi på 350,- kroner, hvilket lægger sig omkring mange af de andre mobile højttalere vi kender som tilbehør til vores laptops og mobiltelefoner. Man kan muligvis godt finde et sæt højttalere, der kunne spille bedre, men så vil de absolut ikke være ligeså mobile som denne lille enhed.

UK summary

It has been very interesting testing this little gadget from Computer Mester. Once again they managed to impress us with a lot more sound that we were expecting, when we first opened the package. There is a lot of performance to gain, by plugging it into your laptop of mobile phone and if you do not want to carry your gadgets around with you, you can just insert a mini-SD card, and have the unit work as a portable MP3 player. The surface is however very important and if you are not near any hard surface, you should not expect any miracles from this product.

Innovation/Technology - 4
It is not the first time we have seen omni-directional sound units, but this deserves a score of 4, since for me atleast, it is new to see a unit wokr as a speaker magnet and use the surface as a membrane. That is clever.

Design - 3
There is not really anything special to the design. It is however nice that they managed to fit all the different functions this has, into it, considering the size of it.

Performance - 4
There is a lot more performance in this little unit than first expected and under the right circumstances I would choose this over the standard sound in mobile units any day. I have given it a score of 4, since the treble can scream a bit, if you turn the volume up too loud. The surface is very important, so the unit in itself, does not determine the result.

Price - 3
The pricetag on this unit is 350,- DKK, which puts it in the same range as a lot of the other mobile speakers we know as accessories to our laptops and mobile phones. You might be able to find a set of speakers, which can play better, but then it would definately not be as mobile as this unit.
